No Lita
I think will have the same score line as the last time. -
MU to win by at least 2 goals!
-
I'm hoping we would win with a convincing scoreline like 3-0 or 4-0.
-
2-1 or 3-2 for me

New signings Carlos Tevez, Nani, Owen Hargreaves and Anderson are set to be on the bench as Manchester United begin their Premier League title defence.
Tevez is eligible but boss Sir Alex Fergsuson will not play him - while Gary Neville and Louis Saha are out.
Reading will be without striker Leroy Lita, wingers Glen Little and Bobby Convey and defender Ibrahima Sonko.
Goalkeeper Marcus Hahnemann is expected to play despite not having fully recovered from a broken hand.

Le Tiss predicts
HOME WIN - This is going to be comfortable for United and I wouldn't be surprised if it turned into a bit of a battering. Reading could easily prove me wrong, but I just can't see them handling United's pace and in particular, movement, going forward. I fancy at least a 3-0 win for the champions.
Matt's main man
NANI (MANCHESTER UNITED) - I hope he gets a run because having seen one or two of the things he has done in pre-season, he looks like he's slotted straight in to the Manchester United way. He scored a stunning effort in Ireland in midweek and has done a couple of wonderful things, so if anyone is in form, it's him. No-one is better than Fergie than looking after his young players and he will have plenty of time on the bench this season, but I hope we get to see him on Sunday. Mind you, I'm not sure about that goal celebration... -
New boys could face Royals
Sir Alex Ferguson has confirmed that new signings Nani, Anderson and Owen Hargreaves will feature in UnitedÂ’s squad to face Reading on Sunday.
The Reds begin their defence of the Premier League title against Steve CoppellÂ’s Royals at Old Trafford, and all three new boys are available for selection. Paul Scholes is also fit and raring to go after emerging unscathed from his surprise midweek return against Dunfermline at East End Park.
"Nani and Anderson will be in the squad, but whether they start or not, I have my doubts," the boss told reporters. "They probably need a bit more training and a few games. But IÂ’m putting them in the squad anyway. Paul Scholes came through the game on Wednesday and he will be available for Sunday, which is good news.
"Owen played 60 minutes against Dunfermline and he will definitely be in Sunday's squad. He probably needs another game, but we were very pleased with his contribution. He showed exactly what he'll bring to the team. There was great speed to his play and I was delighted with his contribution."
UnitedÂ’s attacking options will be further boosted in the near future, with news that Ole Gunnar Solskjaer and Louis Saha were back in full training this week. The boss said: "Louis and Ole started training with the first team this week, which is good news. Hopefully they're not too far away. It will be great to have them back because of the experience they bring to the front line."
Skipper Gary Neville, however, is still some way from a comeback, having damaged ankle ligaments against Bolton last March. "Gary Neville is making progress, but itÂ’s pretty slow," added Sir Alex. "I donÂ’t think heÂ’ll be available for three weeks." -
